Tap in with The Playground for all the latest updates from New York and from around the industry - where we go over everything that went down this week that you need to know about. By Disney Molina
The Playground Meets: Tessellated
Jamaican-born artist Tessellated (or Tess as he likes to call himself) is one of the newest voices contributing to an international explosion in music, introducing the world to a flavor that has long been overlooked on a commercial level.
Fresh off the stage of a virtual performance for the widely acclaimed SXSW festival, Tess joined The Playground for an interview via Instagram live where he shared his SXSW experience, his influences, his views on Afrobeats versus Dancehall, and more.

The Playground Meets: SNS
Harlem rapper SNS is everything you love about New York Hip-Hop rolled into one. The persona, the bars, and unmatched ability to make a hit that can blare from the speakers no matter where you go.
He’s made waves all on his own, but also has cosigns from some of the biggest names in the game. From Meek Mill to DJ Khaled, Troy Ave, and Dave East - SNS has been fortunate enough to work with these artists as well as obtain their respect. He has been putting in work in the industry for nearly a decade, slowly rising through the ranks with songs like “Nasty Work” feat. Dave East and “Dougie” feat. Jim Jones and delivering hits every step of the way. Written by Disney Molina. The Playground powered by The PressPlay Agency
The Playground Meets: AdELA
AdeLAis the quintessential triple threat. Rapping, singing, writing for some of the biggest names in the industry, and thanks to the pandemic she’s picked up some video directing skills. The sky's the limit for this South African-born beauty.
In honor of women's history month, we asked this exciting new artist about her creative process on her latest hit ‘My Green’. Written by Disney Molina
